    Yeah, my cheeks refuse to grow hair at the same rate as my chin or side burns, it’s strange.

      It’s normal. I can grow a moustache - a proper soup strainer; I can grow a chin beard. No chance can I grow sideburns, the hair goes super sparse above my mouth (aside from directly above my lip)

      There’s great variation in the facial hair men can grow and whatever one can grow will increase as one ages.

        god i wish i could get a proper bushy mushy, i get an acceptable amount of lip reinforcement but 90% of the growth goes straight into growing the pointiest beard you’ve ever seen

        gotta trim off like half of it to avoid looking like i got a traffic cone on my chin

          I couldn’t grow a mo until age 40, so if you’re young, don’t be discouraged

          Also I never had success just growing a mo. I grew a wild beard and then shaved off everything else
